A New Standard in Artistic CAD/CAM

CAD/CAM programs have come a long way fast and the average user now has their choice of a dozen programs to help them get the job done. Although each program has a particular strength they're all mostly the same- they're usually designed for prismatic or mechanical parts but very few are designed for the artistic market. With the release of the Art version, MeshCAM sets a new standard in the artistic CAD/CAM market.

Image-Based Design Everything in MeshCAM Art is image-based. Other programs are vector-based so you'll need to create outlines, then regions, then shapes. You can create the base art for MeshCAM Art in any paint program and apply shapes directly to the images you create. Users have been able to create quality work within hours of downloading the demo.

Full Geometry History MeshCAM Art remembers every step that you took to build your geometry. If it becomes necessary to go back a few steps to change a profile or add another step you can do so without having to undo all of your work. The full history can be saved and reloaded later so that you can make changes in the future without duplicating your work.

Interoperability There will be times that you'll need to move your work between programs to get the results you need. To support this MeshCAM offers several ways to export your work- BMP and PNG height maps or STL and DXF 3D files. This flexibility allows data exchange between almost any other CAD/CAM program.

Direct Machining Since MeshCAM Art is built on the standard version you'll have all of the machining capability you need right there- no extra programs to generate a toolpath. You provide the initial artwork and within minutes you can have a 3D geometry and a toolpath ready to machine without the need to export from CAD to CAM.
